Missing "Sith" tag for Asajj Ventress

Hi all :-) Ventress doesn't have the "Sith" tag in game, despite being Dooku's Sith apprentice (and referred to as such by Palpatine in Clone Wars season 3 episode 12, "Nightsisters"). I was hoping to see if it would be possible to change this? Thanks!

  • This has been debated many times over.... to some extent it is a matter of opinion but she is not a sith.

    I would not expect her to get that tag in game.

    There have been other statements made about how tags are given, and ine that really hold true for this character is that thia is the person at a point in time and if asked what would they consider themselves. I dont think she would say she is a Sith.
  • So why is Savage a Sith then? Same argument. He was under the influence of the Nightsisters when he accomplished most of what he did for Dooku.

    NS tag for Savage.
  • Except he wasn't. He was essentially under mind control by the NS to try and kill Dooku.

    Asajj is referred to as Dooku's "apprentice" by Dooku himself in the Clone Wars.

    I get it, the standard defence is "these are snapshots of the characters at a particular time" which is completely false and not applied evenly throughout the game.

    Why is C3PO listed as part of every faction he served in throughout all the various movies and shows? Shouldn't there be different versions of him to align with the "snapshot" theory touted by everyone whenever these threads come up? Red arm C3PO for Resistance, ultra-clean and shiny C3PO for Galactic Republic, Chrome leg C3PO for Rebels?
  • It also, if you read everything after the "summary", says that she was chosen by Dooku to be his apprentice.

    Which he explicitly states himself in the very episode where she fails, and he then turns on her and tries to have her killed.

    Also, by your logic, "Sith Assassins" should not be tagged as Sith because they aren't actually Sith Lords, just assassins used by the Sith... Just like you claim Asajj is being used.

    Which was in violation of the Rule of Two, and as the apprentice himself, he did not authority to do it and have it actually mean anything.

    Tags are purely for balance...nothing more, nothing less. There is a whole mess of toons that everyone can argue. Balance is the only reason.
  • The reason Savage is a Sith and Ventress is not is because Darth Maul, when he first returned, made Savage his Sith appentice. They both were Sith Lords and that's why Darth Sidious hunted them down and killed Savage because they were rival Sith. Once they were defeated Maul renounced his title as a Sith and became a crime lord, leaving Sidious and Dooku the only Sith.
